Hi! We are **verkstedt** 👋

We are a distributed team of software developers and designers, regularly meeting in the heart of **Berlin** Mitte.

We are passionate about delivering high quality web applications with a strong focus on user experience, scalability and accurately designed solutions that do the job for today, but also for the future(-feature).

We are currently looking for a dedicated **Working Student** to join our **design team**.

Join us and become part of a seasoned team of skilled engineers and experienced UX/UI Designers! We offer you the opportunity to shape and evolve large-scale software projects, work flexibly and focus on interface design and understanding users, not bureaucracy.

Software engineering is always about trade-offs. Thus we try to focus on implementing pragmatic solutions and getting things done, rather than succumbing to dogmas.

## Tasks

**Tasks**

As a **Working Student**, you will be part of a small team, developing large scalable design systems and digging deep in the crates of figma. 

Your tasks will involve a combination of the following:

*   Research visual trends, branding, and interface preferences
*   Concepting, wireframing and prototyping information architecture 
*   Create and maintain style guides, UI kits, and components up to whole applications (plus dark mode variables, white labeling options and loosing your mind from time to time 😁)
*   Ensure colors, fonts, and components are WCAG-compliant – and still beautiful
*   Work closely with developers to hand off polished visual assets
*   Participate in as little meetings as possible. 

If this sounds like what you are looking for, **get in touch!** – We’re looking forward to meeting you.

## Requirements

**Requirements**

Our primary requirement is **a genuine passion for creating exceptional applications**, designing clean and/but creative, and an eagerness to collaborate on innovative projects.

Coupled with **first, but solid experiences of hands-on design (preferably made in the Adobe Suite applications and/or Figma) and a recognizable focus on zen garden-like documents**, you're the kind of seasoned student we're excited to invite for a coffee chat!

As part of our compact but mighty team, we value the **spirit of collaboratio**n and the belief that **software development and design is a team endeavor**. It’s essential for you to be self-directed, thrive in a team environment, communicate openly and directly and enjoy the camaraderie with fellow designers and developers.

Your ability to **navigate complex problems with pragmatic solutions** is key. 

Recognizing that multiple paths can lead to the same destination reflects the wisdom we seek. Embracing challenges and learning from failures without fear is part of our ethos – we aim to grow from each experience, not repeat mistakes.

**Fluency in English** is crucial for seamless communication within our international team.

And if you can sprinkle in some German, that’s a delightful bonus we appreciate.

## Benefits

**Benefits**

*   a competitive salary
*   flexible working hours
*   time for working on Open Source projects during our regular Open Fridays and
*   you can choose the gear you like

Implementing web applications means hard work, so we always make sure to have enough coffee, fruits, Club Mate & snacks in the office and at our place we also hold regular Board Game evenings for those interested.

Great! Simply fill in the application form below and we will get in touch within a week.

What we then usually do is to start with a quick chat via Zoom (or whatever channel works) to get to know each other and for you to ask any question that might come to mind.

If we all agree to proceed we would invite you for a design demo, which allows us to have a second more indepth discussion with you about your work.

And that’s basically all the application process there is.
